Founded in 1833, CF Martin and Co. has become the most prominent and widely imitated builder of flat top guitars in the world. Martin's history with archtop guitars dates to 1931, and its C, R and F series models were produced until 1942. It took Martin over six decades to re-enter the archtop market, with the introduction of the CF series in 2004. Designed by noted luthier Dale Unger of American Archtop guitar fame, the CF guitars were built in Martin's Nazareth, PA factory under his direct supervision.

A true US made instrument at an amazingly affordable price, the CF-1 is a full depth 17″ Venetian cutaway guitar, with an X- braced arched spruce soundboard, and Kent Armstrong floating pickup. Built in the lineage of the great Bendetto designs, the sleek lines of the CF-1 are accentuated by the binding-free construction, lending the instrument a clean and dramatic appearance.

Original deluxe arched tweed plush hardshell case.
